      RESETTLEMENT AND MEDICAL PROBLEMS OF INDOCHINESE REFUGEES

                        IN THE UNITED STATES


     Mr. Chairman and Members of the Subcommittee, we are pleased

to appear today to discuss the work we have recently completed

concerning problems with both the resettlement of Indochinese

refugees in the United States and in the overseas medical examinations

given refugees.

     Overall, we have concerns about

     --the continuing placement of most refugees in a few
       areas in the United States;

     --the lack of employment assistance given to refugees soon
       after their arrival coupled with the large number of
       them receiving public assistance;
